Virtek TrussLine® — Truss Manufacturing the Easy Way
We can reduce your set up and changeover times by up to 70% and increase your productivity by 25%.
The Virtek TrussLine laser projection system has revolutionized the
prefabricated construction industry. TrussLine projects the exact locations
of all truss joints and connector plates onto the set-up table. The system is
used by hundreds of customers worldwide, who all report increased productivity,
improved quality, and reduced scrap.
Increase Throughput and Quality
Virtek TrussLine makes prefabricated steel and wood truss manufacturing
so easy that less experienced workers can become productive in a few hours.
The system projects a laser template of the truss to be built onto the work surface,
highlighting the position and shape of all truss joints and connector plates to lower
per unit costs. For steel applications, the system even projects the number of
fasteners required at each joint location.
